LIMITED SERVICE CAMPAIGN K0D (Remedy Notice)
Certain 2011 - 2017 Model Year Tacoma
Frame Corrosion Resistant Compound (CRC) Application
Model / Years
2011 – 2017 Tacoma

Production Period
Late June 2010 – Early June 2017

Approximate Total Vehicles
302,470

Condition
Toyota has received reports regarding frame corrosion perforation on 2011 – 2017 model year Tacoma vehicles. In these
reports, customers have indicated that vehicles operated in specific cold climate areas with high road salt usage may exhibit
more-than-normal corrosion to the vehicle’s frame. This condition is unrelated to and separate from normal surface rust which
is commonly found on metallic surfaces after some years of usage and/or exposure to the environment.
Remedy
Any authorized Toyota dealer in the Cold Climate States (CCS)1 will first inspect the condition of the vehicle’s frame under
associated Customer Support Program (CSP) ZKA. Based upon the results and date of the inspection, the dealership will do one
of the following:
• If qualifying rust perforation is not found, and the vehicle is located in a Cold Climate State, the dealer will apply
Corrosion Resistant Compound (CRC) and/or install frame plugs to key areas of the vehicle’s frame FREE OF CHARGE
to the owner under Limited Service Campaign (LSC) K0D.
• If qualifying rust perforation is not found, and the vehicle is not located in a Cold Climate State, no further action is
required.
• If significant rust perforation is found, the dealer will replace the vehicle’s frame FREE OF CHARGE to the owner
under Customer Support Program ZKA if all conditions of the program are met.

expiration of LSC K0D, the vehicle will not be eligible for frame replacement coverage under CSP ZKA.

Repair Type – CRC Application Required

Owner Letter Mailing Date
Toyota will begin to notify owners in launched regions shortly after launch. Mailings will be consistent with the phased launch
schedule outlined above. A sample of the owner notification letter has been included for your reference.
Toyota makes significant effort to obtain current customer name and address information from each state through industry
resources when mailing owner letters. In the event your dealership receives a notice for a vehicle that was sold prior to the
Limited Service Campaign announcement, it is the dealership’s responsibility to forward the owner letter to the customer who
purchased the vehicle.
Please note that only owners of the covered vehicles will be notified. If you are contacted by an owner who has not yet received
a notification, please verify eligibility by confirming through TIS prior to performing repairs. Dealers should perform the repair
as outlined in the Technical Instructions found on TIS.

Dealer Inventory Procedures
New and Used Vehicles in Dealership Inventory (In-Stock Vehicles)
To ensure customer satisfaction, Toyota requests that dealers complete this Limited Service Campaign on any new or used
vehicles currently in dealer inventory that are covered by this Limited Service Campaign prior to customer delivery. However,
if the campaign cannot be completed (for example, due to remedy parts availability), delivery of a covered vehicle is acceptable
if disclosed to the customer that the vehicle is involved in a Limited Service Campaign.
Toyota expects dealers to use the attached Customer Contact and Vehicle Disclosure Form to obtain vehicle buyer information.
Dealers are expected to provide a copy of the completed form, along with the most current FAQ, to the vehicle buyer. Toyota
and the dealer may use this information to contact the customer when the remedy becomes available.
Keep the completed form on file at the dealership and send a copy to quality_compliance@toyota.com. In the subject line of
the email, state “Disclosure Form K0D” and include the VIN.
NOTE: Dealers can identify if any of their new and used inventory has any open campaigns in the Vehicle Inventory Summary
available in Dealer Daily (https://dealerdaily.toyota.com/). The Vehicle Inventory Summary may take up to 4 hours to populate
information for newly launched campaigns.
Toyota Certified Used Vehicle (TCUV)
The TCUV policy prohibits the certification of any vehicle with an outstanding Safety Recall, Special Service Campaign, or Limited
Service Campaign. Thus, no affected units are to be designated, sold, or delivered as a TCUV until all applicable Safety Recalls,

Lane or have been placed on Manual Allocation Control (MAC) due to potential limited part availability. Please check the

Bulletin 2011-087 for campaign parts that are currently returnable under the Monthly Parts Return Program and for additional

To assist dealers in determining the correct part numbers to order, as well as required remedy, a website has been developed.
Please go to https://tacoma-2011-2017-frames.imagespm.info/. The website will guide you through the inspection results and
determine the parts needed for the required repair, depending on your region’s location and K0D launch status. The website is
for part(s) application reference only and the website will not order the parts, confirm campaign completion status, or confirm
campaign applicability.
Note: When first logging in, enter your dealer code and the default password (XXXXX). Upon logging in, the website will ask
for you to reset the password and provide an e-mail address.
